I don’t know who creates these things, but a few days ago (January 21) was Squirrel Appreciation Day. A few days before that I took this photo on the Santa Clara University campus.

Marugame udon in the city of Kai (Japan)

@MarugameUdonID

Before dinner things looked like this. After dinner, on my way to Kofu by bike, things looked like this.

Should you find yourself a bit west of Kofu (as there is a different one right in Kofu), here is the address:
丸亀製麺甲斐店
山梨県甲斐市中下条字三味堂908-3

Shugakuin Imperial Villa (Kyoto, Japan)

This is a photo of the Upper Villa (上離宮) area including Yokuryuchi (bathing dragon pond or 浴龍池) from Rinuntei (隣雲亭). Unfortunately, I did not get to see the bathing dragon because that would have been cool.
